Exhibit 99.3
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of SoundHound AI, Inc. (“SoundHound” or the “Company”) has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended, and presents the combination of the historical financial information of SoundHound and Amelia Holdings, Inc. (“Amelia” or the “Target”), adjusted to give effect to the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of SoundHound also gives effect to another financing event completed by SoundHound that has occurred but is not yet reflected in the historical financial information of SoundHound and is considered a material transaction separate from the Acquisition.

Description of the Acquisition

On August 6, 2024 (the “Acquisition Date”), SoundHound completed its acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Amelia, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) entered into by and among SoundHound, Firehorse Merger Sub, LLC (“Purchaser Sub”), IPSoft Global Holdings, Inc., and BuildGroup, LLC (each of IPSoft Global Holdings, Inc. and BuildGroup LLC, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”). The Company issued a total of 5,959,050 shares of the SoundHound Class A common stock to the Sellers (the “Upfront Consideration”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company deposited 2,149,530 shares of the Upfront Consideration into an escrow account in order to partially secure the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under the Purchase Agreement (the “Escrow Consideration”). The Company also paid $8.4 million of cash for seller transaction expenses in connection with the closing of the Acquisition. At the effective time of the Acquisition, each outstanding Target stock option expired and was cancelled and extinguished without any right to receive any consideration and each outstanding Target warrant to purchase capital stock of Target expired and was cancelled and extinguished without any right to receive any consideration. In addition to the Upfront Consideration, the Company has agreed to issue up to 16,822,429 shares to the Sellers based on achievement of certain revenue targets in fiscal years 2025 and 2026.

Other Financing Event

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company assumed the amended senior secured term loan facility of the Target (“Amended Term Loan Facility”). In accordance with the amended terms, on August 7, 2024, the Company paid $70.0 million in cash and issued 2,943,917 shares to pay down a portion of the outstanding principal balance and settle certain fees associated with the Amended Term Loan Facility (the “Debt Paydown” and together with the Acquisition, the “Transactions”). The remaining outstanding balance of $39.7 million has a maturity date of June 30, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) and provides, at the Company’s election, for payment of a portion of interest in cash or any interest in respect of the loan hereunder that is paid in kind will be capitalized and added to the outstanding principal amount during the term of the loan with principal and accrued interest due at the Maturity Date. The Amended Term Loan Facility may be prepaid at any time and must be prepaid, along with the applicable prepayment premium and exit fee, upon the occurrence of certain future events. The Amended Term Loan Facility will accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of (a) Adjusted Term SOFR and (b)(i) an applicable margin of 9.0% for the portion of interest paid in cash, and (ii) an additional 1.0% for the portion of interest is paid in kind. Upon an event of default, the interest rate will automatically increase by an additional 2.0% for each year, and may result in the declaration that all outstanding principal and interest under the Amended Term Loan Facility be immediately due and payable in whole or in part.

Other Information
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet assumes that the Transactions occurred on June 30, 2024, and combines the historical balance sheets of SoundHound and Amelia giving pro forma effect as of such date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 and six months ended June 30, 2024, assumes that the Transactions occurred as of January 1, 2023, and combines the historical results of SoundHound and Amelia giving pro forma effect for the periods then ended.
The adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been identified and presented to to provide relevant information in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) necessary for an illustrative understanding of the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are believed by management to be necessary for a fair statement of SoundHound’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is derived from the historical financial statements of SoundHound and Amelia, and should be read in conjunction with the following financial statement and accompanying notes:

the historical audited consolidated financial statements of SoundHound for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 1, 2024, and incorporated herein by reference,
the historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of SoundHound for the six months ended June 30, 2024, included in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 9, 2024, and incorporated herein by reference,
the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Amelia for the year ended December 31, 2023, that are included as Exhibit 99.1 in the Company’s Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on October 22, 2024 to which this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is being filed as an exhibit, and
the historical unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Amelia for the six months ended June 30, 2024, that are included as Exhibit 99.2 in the Company’s Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on October 22, 2024 to which this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is being filed as an exhibit.

Assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read in conjunction with the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The transaction accounting adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable. Such adjustments are estimates and actual experience may differ from expectations.

The Acquisition is subject to closing adjustments that have not yet been finalized. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as required by SEC rules. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may be material.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations reflect transaction accounting adjustments. The historical financial information of SoundHound and Amelia has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to reflect transaction accounting adjustments related to the Transactions in accordance with GAAP, based on the assumptions and adjustments that are described in the accompanying notes.

The Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting under GAAP.  Under this method of accounting, SoundHound has been determined to be the accounting acquirer and Amelia to be the accounting acquiree. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured and recognized at fair value as of the Acquisition Date. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to goodwill. The final purchase price allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the transaction accounting adjustments as the final allocation may include changes in allocations to intangible assets as well as goodwill.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes certain reclassifications to conform Amelia historical accounting presentation to SoundHound’s accounting presentation. The actual results of operations of the combined company will likely differ, perhaps materially, from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors. The Company believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Transactions based on information available to management at this time, and that the pro forma transaction accounting adjustments give effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings, or cost savings that may be associated with the Acquisition and the related transactions. Both companies continue to experience losses and are in a historical cumulative loss position and both companies have established valuation allowances against net deferred tax assets. The income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments would be fully offset by corresponding adjustments to the valuation allowances, resulting in no net effect on the pro forma condensed combined statements of operations. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different than what is presented in these unaudited pro forma financial statements depending on post-business combination activities, including legal entity restructuring, repatriation decisions, and the geographical mix of taxable income.

Note 2: Reclassification Adjustments

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are those set out in SoundHound’s audited annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023. SoundHound management is currently evaluating for significant accounting policy differences between SoundHound and Amelia. SoundHound management is performing a comprehensive review of the accounting policies between the two entities and may identify differences in accounting policies between the two entities, which, when conformed, could be material.
Certain reclassifications are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations to conform presentation between SoundHound and Amelia. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported total assets, total liabilities and shareholders’ equity, or net income of SoundHound or Amelia. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information may not reflect all reclassifications necessary to conform Amelia’s presentation to that of SoundHound due to limitations on the availability of information as of the date of this current report. Additional reclassification adjustments may be identified as more information becomes available.

Note 3: Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The preliminary purchase consideration of $103.9 million is allocated to Amelia’s tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on preliminary estimated fair values. The fair value assessments are preliminary and are based upon available information and certain assumptions, which SoundHound believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

For purposes of this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the preliminary calculation of the purchase consideration is as follows:
 (in thousands)
Equity consideration $15,291
Equity consideration in escrow 8,628
Cash consideration paid8,407
Contingent earnout consideration71,560
Total preliminary purchase consideration $103,886

As outlined in the Purchase Agreement, shares of SoundHound Class A common stock were issued in a private placement in exchange for Amelia’s equity held by the former stockholders as of the Acquisition Date. The fair value of the 3,809,520 shares issued as equity consideration and the 2,149,530 shares issued and held in escrow was determined by multiplying the total 5,959,050 shares issued by the closing price of the Company’s common stock as of the Acquisition Date, subject to a discount for lack of marketability.

The preliminary purchase consideration also includes $8.4 million of seller transaction expenses paid in connection with the closing of the Acquisition. The seller transaction expenses paid by the Company included certain change in control payments, contractual settlements, and professional, consulting, and legal fees incurred by Amelia and its former shareholders.

The Company also agreed to issue up to 16,822,429 shares of Class A common stock in additional consideration to the Sellers based on achievement of certain revenue targets in fiscal years 2025 (“First Earnout Period”) and 2026 (“Second Earnout Period”). During the First Earnout Period, if the Company’s total software revenue from the sale of Amelia’s products is between $55.0 million and $80.0 million, the base earnout payment will range from 5,607,476 shares to 11,214,953 shares of additional equity consideration. If the Company’s total software revenue from the sale of Amelia’s products is between $80.0 million and $100.0 million, the excess earnout payment will range from zero to 5,607,476 shares of additional equity consideration. If the Target does not earn the entire excess earnout payment of additional equity consideration during the First Earnout Period, the portion not earned may be earned in the Second Earnout Period subject to the same revenue metrics. The Earnout is accounted for as contingent consideration and will be accounted for as a liability, initially measured at fair value of $71.6 million with changes during each reporting period recognized in earnings. The fair value of the Earnout is based on a Monte Carlo simulation model, assessed as of the Acquisition Date.

For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the following table sets forth a preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase consideration:

Note 4: Transaction Accounting Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet – Amelia Acquisition

The adjustments related to the acquisition of Amelia included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 are as follows:

(a)Reflects the total preliminary purchase consideration of $103.9 million, consisting of (i) the issuance of 3,809,520 shares of SoundHound Class A common stock with a fair value of $15.3 million as equity consideration, (ii) the issuance of 2,149,530 shares of SoundHound Class A common stock with a fair value of $8.6 million in escrow as of the Acquisition Date, (iii) the recognition of contingent consideration for the Earnout, which is initially measured at a fair value of $71.6 million, and (iv) the payment of seller transaction expenses of $8.4 million.

(b)Reflects preliminary purchase accounting adjustments to eliminate $2.2 million and $2.2 million from other current assets and other non-current assets, respectively, for deferred costs that were not assets as defined by ASC 805.

(c)Reflects the elimination of Amelia's historical goodwill and the recognition of the preliminary estimate of goodwill based on the preliminary purchase price allocation. The difference between the preliminary total merger consideration and preliminary identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as estimated goodwill. Goodwill recognized in the Acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Refer to Note 3 for further details related to the preliminary purchase price allocation.

(d)Reflects the elimination of Amelia's historical intangible assets and the recognition of the preliminary estimated fair value of intangible assets acquired in the Acquisition. The amortization related to these identifiable intangible assets is reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, as further described in Notes 6(a) and 6(f).

Elimination of Amelia's historical intangible assets, net(47,971)
Net adjustment to intangible assets, net$126,529 

SoundHound determined a preliminary fair value estimate of intangible assets resulting from the preliminary fair value allocation of the purchase price. The intangible assets include the following:

Fair value
Estimated useful life
Intangible assets acquired
(in thousands)
(in years)
Proprietary technology$98,9005
Customer relationships68,6005
Trade names7,0005
Total fair value of intangible assets acquired$174,500

(e)Reflects the recognition of a $1.2 million indemnification asset, which represents the estimated fair value of shares as of the date of the closing expected to be returned to SoundHound from escrow for indemnified tax and specified matters pursuant to the contractual limitations of the Purchase Agreement, and an accrual of $0.2 million in income tax liability for indemnified tax matters assumed.

(f)Reflects the accrual of $1.3 million in accrued liabilities for estimated transaction costs incurred by Amelia subsequent to June 30, 2024, which is net of $8.4 million of seller transaction expenses paid by the Company as of the Acquisition Date.

(g)Reflects the accrual of $4.6 million in accrued liabilities for estimated transaction costs incurred by SoundHound subsequent to June 30, 2024.

(h)Reflects income tax-related adjustments. The adjustment to deferred tax liability of $0.03 million is associated with the incremental differences in the book and tax basis created from the preliminary purchase price allocation, primarily resulting from the preliminary fair value of intangible assets. SoundHound has made no adjustments to Amelia’s historical realizability of deferred tax assets and will continue to assess the realizability of such assets recognizing that realizability could change upon consolidation. This estimate of deferred taxes was determined based on SoundHound's expected ability to use Amelia's net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes in future periods as well as the excess of the fair values of the acquired assets and liabilities over the tax basis of the assets and liabilities to be acquired. In addition, under Sections 382 and 383 of the IRC, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” generally defined as a greater than 50% change (by value) in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-ownership change U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards and other pre-ownership change U.S. federal tax attributes, such as research tax credits, to offset its post-ownership change income may be limited. We may experience ownership changes in the future because of subsequent shifts in our stock ownership. As a result, if we earn net taxable income, our ability to use our pre-ownership change net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset U.S. federal and state taxable income may be subject to limitations, which could potentially result in increased future tax liability to us.

(i)Reflects the elimination of Amelia’s historical $5.4 million warrant liability from other non-current liabilities following their extinguishment as of the Acquisition Date.

(j)Reflects adjustments of $(26.0) million and $51.1 million to current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt, respectively, to adjust Amelia's historical balance to fair value the terms of the Amended Term Loan Facility. The remaining outstanding balance on the Amended Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of June 30, 2026.

(k)Reflects the elimination of Amelia’s equity (deficit) balances, including common stock of $0.1 million, preferred stock of $267.7 million, accumulated deficit of $161.3 million, and accumulated other comprehensive income of $2.6 million.


Note 5: Transaction Accounting Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet – Debt Paydown

Note 6: Transaction Accounting Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations – Amelia Acquisition

The adjustments related to the acquisition of Amelia included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 are as follows:

(a)Reflects the elimination of Amelia historical amortization expense and the recognition of new amortization expense related to the acquired identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair value on the Acquisition Date. Amortization expense is calculated based on the estimated fair value of each of the identifiable intangible asset and the associated estimated useful lives.

SoundHound determined a preliminary fair value estimate of intangible assets based on a valuation conducted by a third-party valuation specialist. The acquired intangible assets have been amortized using a straight-line method based on their estimated useful lives as if the Acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2023. Refer to Note 4(d) for the corresponding pro forma adjusting entries to recognize the acquired intangible assets.

(d)Reflects the reduction of $6.6 million in historical Amelia interest expense related to the terms of the Amended Term Loan Facility.

(e)Reflects the pro forma basic and diluted net income per share attributable to the combined entity’s common stockholders presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities as a result of the pro forma adjustments. The two-class method requires income available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between shares of common stock and participating securities based on their respective rights to receive earnings as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. The shares issued and held in escrow are participating securities that contractually entitle the holders of such shares to participate in the combined entity’s earnings but do not contractually require the holders of such shares to participate in the combined entity’s losses.

The pro forma basic net income per share attributable to the combined entity’s common stockholders is calculated using the historical basic weighted average shares of SoundHound common stock outstanding, adjusted for the additional new shares of SoundHound Class A common stock issued to consummate the Acquisition, assuming the shares were issued and outstanding as of January 1, 2023. Pro forma diluted net income per share attributable to the combined entity’s common stockholders is calculated using the historical diluted weighted average shares of SoundHound Class A common stock outstanding, adjusted for the additional new shares of SoundHound common stock issued to consummate the Acquisition.

The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate pro forma basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders excludes the 2,149,530 shares of SoundHound Class A common stock held in escrow as they are considered contingently returnable shares until the indemnifications subject to escrow have been resolved.
